$34.99 is a bargain
if you divide this by 365 day a year this work out to be $0.09 a DAY
where else in the world can you get value for money for as little as this?!!!!1

I agree. It's cheap. I spend more than that on booze every week.
Besides, I spend about 18 hours a day on Pogo (with the autos) so it comes out to half a cent per hour. I think it's a GREAT deal. :D
I'll pay it too but when they raise it to $49.99 thats it....plus i am not buying family members memberships anymore!
Pogo is tryin to reach the middle class and or upper class of people... poor ppl...pogo say f'k u.... u and your 4 kids...
No way a family of 5 or 6 can each have their own pogo account... that's when u have the family plan......lol... seriously....... one account and mama... papa... 2 brothers and sisters all take turns playin...and when grandma comes over...tell her to go read a book or knit.....
If your income is low....pogo said... go play for free..... I mean... it does give u an opt....
If you dont wanna play for free... u gotta sale your food stamps....or give up part of your ssi check to the sum of 34.99 year..... jus dont teach your children to beg...gawd... beggin is awfully degradin....and dont beg for free albums and chit....
I personally think since I paid 19.99 for 3 yrs... dont jump to 34.99... gradually increase it... I cant take it too fast....... slowly.... slowly... there u go... slowly....lmfao
Ok.. Im outta this convo...Im talkin crazy now....

i paid 19.99 one time when i had AOL (for the laptop) then i had to pay 29.99 so now 34.99 is only 5 bucks more so.....but i hear what your sayin about pogo tellin poor folks FU....its called greed....heartless,nasty,soulless,money hungry,bloodsucking GREED!!
well i will never buy it if it ever get to 75.00 but i have to have them but they will not be ever i hope they didnt raise it to much a few bucks
Have to put in perspective. How long does $35 in gas last, or beer, or lattes,. The only thing that still comes close is Ramen noodles
What is the big deal, I will still pay it. My badges are worth it :pp and besides isn't this 34.99 mentioned like in two other topics somewhere geez.
34.99 is nothing look at all the games we get for that price .. When they sale games at 19.95 each. PS2 XBox everything else starts at 19.95 too 49.95 for 1 game ..
this is a steal if you look at the time and money you save only paying the 34.95 for a year :///
not a bad price.plus i get it cheaper as an aol member.
Do AOL members really get it cheaper? Thought maybe they would change that too. Especially since anyone can now get an AOL account for free :/\
It's never pleasant when the price of something goes up (unless it's stock you already own) but I still think Pogo is one of the best values on the web.
I do not mind the Club at 34.99 - pretty reasonable. I know my neighbor has an Xbox, buys games and pays for internet access....and those games are expensive...Pogo offers a lot of games - comes out with new stuff. Can't beat that. O0

Now thats the truth, stock makes acceptin any product increase an excellent idea...
I have the free AOL and I am having to pay $24.99 for my membership renewal. So it seems we still get the discount for joining via AOL.
i had it one time never want it again took me 3 months to get them to take me off the account and it was free they anted to give me 3 more months i said no and never want again alot of some ppl have this problems not all some ppl love aol but not for me :D

Way back when AOL was new, it was the best thing to happen to the internet. It was easy to use, basically it held your hand the whole way and the software worked. As other ISPs started popping up and AOL had to try to stay on top, it seems to me they got in way too deep because after about AOL 8.0 the software took over your computer and you had sold your computer souls to AOL. Then came cable <the sounds of heavely choirs> and dial up just didn't do it anymore. That's where AOL started losing it's customer base. I'm telling you, if the only option were still dial-up, millions of ex AOL members wouldn't be ex AOL members.
Standing on pogo street corner holding sign [ will work for pogo membership]!...lol
They raised the prices for AOL & CS members to $24.95 a year. It is cheaper, but you do have to pay the monthly to AOL.

same here :-X
you would think that with all the people that play it now they wouldnt need to raise prices. Ill pay it but im not happy about it. its bad enough we pay for premiun albums
I don't think it is a bad price. Its something that lasts for a whole year and you can use it 24/7. Can't say that about going to the movies or anything else like that.
It is still a good deal as many have mentioned, Going out to the movies isn't cheap either and you can't watch the movie a second time. Well that just showed my age! :))
i think it a good price even know i payed 5.99 a month 71.88 a year i never change mine off the month fee to one a year membership

That's what I do but thinking about changing.
You're paying almost double when you pay by the month.

I know, it's a rip off.
I'm getting ready to dump Pogo - badges and all. I'm tired of them raising the prices. They'll continue to do it too as long as nmot too many people make a big stink about it. Just watch. Next year it'll go up to $40 per year and they more than likely won't slow down until they hit $50 per year. Just watch and see....
I really don't mind it too much...true, they couldve raised it by like a buck instead of 10 or 5 or whatever it was...but for an entire year of playing i don't really mind...as much as im on it, i think i get my monies worth! its better than takin it out to hard rock and playing 35 bucks in 5 minutes!!! lol

Shoot, too much hard work down the drain. And when you leave 20 more will join, so what the hell would they care.

Doesn't matter how many people make a big stink out of the price rises, Pogo obviously haven't taken any notice of the dozens of price rise petitions that have been floating about. The price rises will continue as long as people out there (like myself) have no problem paying them. It's cheap entertainment :)

:ooo
My membership is due in a few weeks, guess I will be paying 34.99 too. >:D Do they accept food stamps? Just kidding I don't have food stamps, although I wish I did.
I need clarification/ an explanation of whatever Pogo is doing with the rate thing.
Hubby's account ( I use it to double browse for challenges) had a messge when I signed on this AM that said his old CC had been declined. Well, yeah, because we had to cancel the cards because I lost mine.
Here's the thing. When I went to his billing info, it said there was a Promotion Coupon for $27.99. I thought, well, that's nice of them. But when I entered the CC info to PAY and keep his account current, it charged him $34.99.
Did they do a bait and switch?
I also updated my own account info with the same CC while I was at it, and mine also said there was a promotion for the $27.99. Then I got an email from Pogo stating that the updated info had been noted and that my account would automatically be charged the yearly fee of $34.99 when the current subscription was up.
( Note, I don't think anyone knows when my current subscription ends. Since both of our accounts were paid at the same time, but in different years, mine should be due now too. However, it has a Promo Credit listed under " time remaining" and absolutely no renewal date).
Pogo seriously needs to get their stuff together.
